100% agreed. I think there is this mythology that you can bring in amazing foreign workers and pay them (virtually) nothing. If you hire a 50k/year developer there isn't really reason to believe that they are any better if they are from Bangalore or if they are from Peoria. The current situation is incredibly exploitative of these foreign workers too. They are effectively tied to their original employer to remain in the country. Honestly, 200k still seems on the low side to me. H1B should be a "we can't find anyone" not "we can't find anyone willing to work cheaply enough" visa.
